Upholding a Persona

Performance

Upholding a Persona is a performance piece in which the artist holds a machine-woven fabric printed with their Facebook profile, using it to cover their entire front-facing body. The act becomes a test of endurance, as the artist struggles to maintain form and holding the piece of fabric over their head for an extended period of time, revealing the tension between the physical and psychological fatigue and the effort of upholding a constructed digital persona.
